Overview

Case report details surgical management of a rare coronary anomaly in a young adult, highlighting the importance of early imaging and intervention.

Key Points

  • The case presents a rare combination of sinus node artery aneurysm and right coronary artery aneurysm with an atrial fistula.
  • A 23-year-old male experienced exertional dyspnea; imaging revealed a significant coronary fistula and marked right atrial dilation.
  • Surgical correction involved closing the atrial fistulous orifice while preserving the sinus node artery without reconstructing the right coronary artery.
  • Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial to prevent complications from this unusual cardiac anomaly, supporting the need for multimodal imaging.
